American power tools (Milwaukee) From Ebay

[NordicCrankShaft]

I'm looking at a few Milwaukee bits for work and browing eBay it seems as though I can make nearly a three hundred pounds saving on buying them here in Norway and that accounts for import charges, delivery cost's and having to buy a Norwegian Milwaukee charger. So whats the deal will batteries and the actual tools work if I buy the correct voltage charger?

Don't see why not, and it's good gear.

Go to youtube.

Searche for AVE.

He has a good few teardowns of the new Milsucky gear and explains how it is basically the same as Ryobi etc now

You can get them over here too. My local place sells it and you can get it online.

I'm not talking about the quality as I already have a few Milwaukee bits and I think it's really good stuff. I also already know about the Ryobi/AEG connections as they have the same parent company. Just like Stanley own Black & Decker and DeWalt.

I assume you want to use it in Norway and UK? Both have 230v 50Hz supply so why do you think there would be a problem?

Not sure about Milwaukee but I know that dewalt 20v range in the states are exactly the same as our 18v range. it appears they can use the battery voltage offload rather that the on load reading we use.
Guess its part of the higher voltage more power thinking that many people have.
Ive bought the dewalt stuff from the states and it works fine with our batteries so cant see why Milwaukee should be any different just check on the battery voltage if there are any differences.
